| Popis: | Phyllobaenus testaceus (Gorham, 1883: 169) (Figs. 24���26) Original combination. Hydnocera testacea Types. Of the type series localities Gorham indicated multiple specimens from Volcan de Chiriqui and Bugaba. There could also be multiple specimens from Cerro Zunil. He specified that there was only one specimen from Mexico. The number of remaining syntypes in other museums is unknown, however the Mexican specimen is accounted for here and there is at least one specimen from Cerro Zunil unaccounted. One syntype from Cerro Zunil is in the SDEI (D��bler 1980: 431). Comments. The type series likely contains more than one species. The lectotype (Fig. 24) has two dorsolateral dark vittae while some paralectotypes (Figs. 25���26) have three, one central and two lateral. The elytral form of all three figured specimens appears quite different, so if the figured specimens truly are the same species, then there is considerable plasticity in elytral form. Series locality. Playa Vicente, Mexico; Cerro Zunil and Quiche Mountains, Guatemala; Volcan de Chiriqui and Bugaba, Panama. Type locality. Quiche Mountains, Guatemala.
